Simple English definitions for legal terms

works

Read a random definition: jus divinum

A quick definition of works:

Works: A place where things are made or built, like a big building or factory. It can also mean any kind of building or structure on land. When someone starts building something new on their property, it's called "new works." Sometimes the government builds things like roads or dams for everyone to use, and those are called "public works."

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Works can refer to:

  1. A place where things are made or manufactured, such as a factory or manufacturing plant.
  2. Any building or structure on land.

For example:

  • "The new works will be a state-of-the-art facility for producing electronics."
  • "The old works building was converted into a trendy apartment complex."

In addition, in civil law, "new works" refers to a structure that is newly started on a particular piece of land. If a neighboring landowner believes that the new structure will harm their property, they can use a denunciation of new works as a legal remedy to prevent the structure from being completed. Finally, "public works" are structures such as roads or dams that are built by the government for public use and paid for by public funds.

These examples illustrate how "works" can refer to both a place where things are made and any building or structure on land. The civil law example shows how "new works" can have legal implications for neighboring landowners, while "public works" demonstrate how the government can use public funds to build structures for the benefit of the community.
